By V4L do you mean the possibility to record from /dev/video_n ? 
In my case that would be a disaster I am using it to scan film frames from a 
1394 camera.

Hello,

today i updated my kernel to 2.6.39 and was able to compile cinelerra after
applying Nicola's patch from bugs.cinelerra.org to j6t's repo.

In my opinion we should support recent kernels rather soon.

So i wonder whether we have to keep v4l1 and buzz supported or whether
removing support therefore (what Nicola's patch does) is fine, too.

Personally speaking i would vote for the second choice as we have extremely
limited resources for maintenance.
However, if (and only if) this hardware should be still in use by Cinelerra
users (please speak up if that's the case for you!) we should consider
adding an option to configure.

Regardless wheter we want to make support optional or remove it completely,
i suggest to release a new version of cinelerra (2.1.6?) supporting linux
kernels >=2.6.39 as soon as possible.

What is you opinion on that?

Regards,
Simeon
